This is untrue, the controller returns 0's only when single node
enabled not with both ehci0 and echi1 atleast on BPI-M64. and we do
enable both controller on dts even with other boards too. having
single node enablement is not a proper test or not with my dts
atleast.

Again we do testing based on our usage scenario's and we're done with
that and good to go. And giving room for 3 releases time and sending
till v10 expecting other boards or usage scenario's can be verified by
other people in the ML. for your words on 'lecturing people on the
MLs' we are here to work like other developers in ML not to give
lecture like in training organizations, better be clear before framing
your words.
